Happy Columbus Day!

In the United States, today is the day we celebrate the anniversary of Christopher Columbus’s arrival in the Americas, which occurred on October 12, 1492. In many towns and cities the festivities includes a parade and you cannot have a parade without a marching band. Today’s image shows the decoration on what must be the most important instrument in any marching band – the drum!
